It is tough when you get used to having a 'borrowed' pet and then they disappear. Perhaps you need to go get a cat! They are wonderful pets and companions! Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day!

They are definitely wonderful pets. But for fear of stray dogs around , we can never go for a cat. Wishing you also a wonderful day 😊

Our kitties used to be indoor/outdoor cats. That is until a neighbor on the next road (we live in a rural area) decided to try to shoot and kill one of my cats that tended to roam. The kitty dragged himself home after being gone for 4 days and was in dire straights, but did survive. From that point on, we decided no cat of ours would be outside. Not only do we have the human predators, but the cars, birds of prey, bobcats and cougars along with an occasional bear (they typically wouldn't eat a kitty, but if it's sick and or starving, it could) that comes along.

The two kitties I have now are happiest indoors. They are afraid of outdoors, which in my mind is good given what lies in wait out there. Consequently, I've had a few kitties live 16 and 18 years old. It's much safer indoors here.

Take care and have a lovely day! !LADY

Ahh.. so sad. How could one ever thing of shooting this poor cat. The kitty should have been scared after the gun shot until it found solace at your home. Good decision you have kept them indoors.
Here most cats are out. They tend to stay indoors only for few hours.

I really don't know why anyone would do what he did, but that was enough for me. Indoors they stay.

Take care my friend and have a lovely day! !LADY
